I see it is packed in an aluminum (possibly mylar) bag. Is the charcoal powder in a plastic bag within to keep the charcoal from the aluminum?

It sounds like the bag is metallized mylar: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metallised_film#Manufacture

Mine wasn't like that but I don't know if they kept the packaging the same. It might have changed. But when I got mine it was in a mylar bag. It is a resealable mylar bag if that helps

It is a mylar bag around 5 mil thick I think. But no it is not in a separate little bag

The bag is not aluminum. It's just silver colored. It has lasted well and does reseal.

It is in a large plastic bag WITH TWO SNAPS ON EITHER SIDE...I keep it in the refrig. well at first it was softer then it is now..the bag was very large...and the way it was cut there are muscle strings that worry me about my poodle (mini) choking on so I pull them out...He likes the taste but I am not sure I will order this item again.....:O(

In a plastic bag. It is not sealed. Has tape around constricted end of bag. It probably is not completely air tight based on that.

I use brown paper grocery bags, crumbled into tight wads or rolls. A LITTLE bit of lighter fluid on them and bam. Charcoal is ready in about 6 minutes! I used to use the conventional paraffin wax/compressed sawdust firelighters and they worked brilliantly, but you could really taste the wax on the food 8(

It comes in a heavy duty plastic bag that is resealable. However, I recommend placing it in an additional plastic bag after opening, the bag zip doesn't hold very well.

The bags are vacuum sealed, so they are very dense. Once opened it is apparent that the PB2 is a powder. I suggest opening it first to see. I think if you open it and it is still as hard as a rock, you'd be able to send it back.

The carbon appears to be pressed / extruded into tube form and looks much like spaghetti. It is also very hard which might indicate low porosity. It also does not come in the bag that is pictured. There is minimal dusting when rinsed and I believe this is due to its hardness. I use it in my freshwater aquarium and it has been working well. I have proved this by performing full spectrum testing of the water.

I don't see one on the pack I have. It's basically a fibercloth bag filled with charcoal. As long as you store your stockpile in an airtight container before use, it should last.

Good Question. After the charcoal turns to ash most of it is left in the adjustable rack. Other than literally vacuuming it out you have to swish it around (can be a bit of a mess) and get it to drop to the bottom. Once on the bottom there is a removable tray you can pull out. I must be honest however the tray at the bottom is incredibly thin and does not seal to the grill. One of the reasons after a month (literally) I decided to make my bother in law a gift as long as he would come get it. Hope this helps.

It's a resealable bag. It's heavy duty, but messy. I would recommend transferring it to a jar.

Its in there... Probably buried at the bottom of the powder... Some scoops just want to watch the world burn.

I think it is. Having the storage compartment or a bag of charcoal is super nice. I throw my lighter, scrap news paper (I use the chimney lighter), and grilling gloves in there also. I really enjoy my Gold.

I didn't notice charcoal and I have no idea what the crystals are made of. It has a pleasant smell but I found the canister DampRid that last for about 3 months to be a better buy. I took it to our camp and it really helps to remove the dampness there. It also can be emptied several times before you have to replace the bag in the top. I was skeptical at first but am sold on it now.

yes you need to put lighter fluid in it. It isn't shipped filled ready to go unfortunately.

I have sold a few of these, and I have them in stock. They are sealed in a bag with and I have not opened the bag, however there is a white powder like substance that is in the bag that I assume is to keep them from being so sticky. Did your product come in a similiar type bag?

I think that kind of container would work well. Better than the bag it comes in, because the charcoal is so fine that it tends to"poof" out when you close the bag & settle on things you don't want having gray or black powder on !

You fill it in the bottom of the handle. I use Ronson butane fuel. It's not a liquid fuel like a Zippo lighter.
